2.1 Pet Sitters A Develop Understanding Task

The Martinez twins, Carlos and Clarita, are trying to find a way to make money during summer vacation. When they overhear their aunt complaining about how difficult it is to find someone to care for her pets while she will be away on a trip, Carlos and Clarita know they have found the perfect solution. Not only do they have a large, unused storage shed on their property where they can house animals, they also have a spacious fenced backyard where the pets can play.

Carlos and Clarita are making a list of some of the issues they need to consider as part of their business plan to care for cats and dogs while their owners are on vacation.

• Space: Cat pens will require 6 ft2 of space, while dog runs require 24 ft2. Carlos and Clarita have up to 360 ft2 available in the storage shed for pens and runs, while still leaving enough room to move around the cages.

• Startup Costs: Carlos and Clarita plan to invest much of the $1280 they earned from their

last business venture to purchase cat pens and dog runs. It will cost $32 for each cat pen and $80 for each dog run.

Of course, Carlos and Clarita want to make as much money as possible from their business, so they are trying to determine how many of each type of pet they should plan to accommodate. They plan to charge $8 per day for boarding each cat and $20 per day for each dog. After surveying the community regarding the pet boarding needs, Carlos and Clarita are confident that they can keep all of their boarding spaces filled for the summer. So the question is, how many of each type of pet should they prepare for? Their dad has suggested the same number of each, perhaps 12 cats and 12 dogs. Carlos thinks they should plan for more dogs, since they can charge more. Clarita thinks they should plan for more cats since they take less space and time, and therefore they can board more. What do you think? What recommendations would you give to Carlos and Clarita, and what argument would you use to convince them that your recommendation is reasonable?

2.2 Too Big or Not Too Big, That is the Question A Solidify Understanding Task

As Carlos is considering the amount of money available for purchasing cat pens and dog runs (see below) he realizes that his father’s suggestion of boarding “the same number of each, perhaps 12 cats and 12 dogs” is too big. Why?

• Startup Costs: Carlos and Clarita plan to invest much of the $1280 they earned from their last business venture to purchase cat pens and dog runs. It will cost $32 for each cat pen and $80 for each dog run.

1. Find at least 5 more combinations of cats and dogs that would be “too big” based on this Start

up Cost constraint. Plot each of these combinations as points on a coordinate grid using the same color for each point.

2. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would not be “too big” based on this Startup

Cost constraint. Plot each of these combinations as points on a coordinate grid using a different color for the points than you used in #1.

3. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would be “just right” based on this Startup

Cost constraint. That is, find combinations of cat pens and dog runs that would cost exactly $1280. Plot each of these combinations as points on a coordinate grid using a third color.

4. What do you notice about these three different collections of points? 5. Write an equation for the line that passes through the points representing combinations of cat

pens and dog runs that cost exactly $1280. What does the slope of this line represent? Carlos and Clarita don’t have to spend all of their money on cat pens and dog runs, unless it will help them maximize their profit. 6. Shade all of the points on your coordinate grid that satisfy the Startup Costs constraint. 7. Write a mathematical rule to represent the points shaded in #6. That is, write an inequality

whose solution set is the collection of points that satisfy the Startup Costs constraint.

Systems 7



In addition to startup costs, Carlos needs to consider how much space he has available, base on the following:


8. Write an inequality to represent the solution set for the space constraint. Shade the solution set

for this inequality on a different coordinate grid.

2.3 Some of One, None of the Other A Solidify Understanding Task

Carlos and Clarita are comparing strategies for writing equations of the boundary lines for the “Pet Sitter” constraints. They are discussing their work on the space constraint.


Carlos’ Method: “I made a table. If I don’t have any dogs, then I have room for 60 cats. If I use some of the space for 1 dog, then I can have 56 cats. With 2 dogs, I can boards 52 cats. For each additional dog, I can board 4 fewer cats. From my table I know the yintercept of my line is 60 and the slope is ‐4, so my equation is y = ‐4x + 60.” Clarita’s Method: “I let x represent the number of dogs, and y the number of cats. Since dog runs require 24 ft2, 24x represents the amount of space used by dogs. Since cat pens require 6 ft2, 6y represents the space used by cats. So my equation is 24x + 6y = 360.” 1. Since both equations represent the same information, they must be equivalent to each other.

a. Show the steps you could use to turn Clarita’s equation into Carlos’ equation. Explain why you can do each step.

b. Show the steps you could use to turn Carlos’ equation into Clarita’s. Explain why you

can do each step. 2. Use both Carlos’ and Clarita’s methods to write the equation of the boundary line for the start

up costs constraint.

• Startup Costs: Carlos and Clarita plan to invest much of the $1280 they earned from their last business venture to purchase cat pens and dog runs. It will cost $32 for each cat pen and $80 for each dog run.

3. Show the steps you could use to turn Clarita’s startup costs equation into Carlos’ equation.

Explain why you can do each step. 4. Show the steps you could use to turn Carlos’ startup costs equation into Clarita’s. Explain why

you can do each step.

11

Systems 11



In addition to writing an equation of the boundary lines, Carlos and Clarita need to graph their lines on a coordinate grid. Carlos’ equations are written in slopeintercept form. Clarita’s equations are written in standard form. Both forms are ways of writing linear equations. Both Carlos and Clarita know they only need to plot two points in order to graph a line. Carlos’ strategy: How might Carlos use his slope‐intercept form, y = ‐4x + 60, to plot two points on his line? Clarita’s strategy: How might Clarita use her standard form, 24x + 6y = 360, to plot two points on her line? (Clarita is really clever, so she looks for the two easiest points she can find.)

2.4 Pampering and Feeding Time A Practice Understanding Task

Carlos and Clarita have been worried about space and start‐up costs for their pet sitters business, but they realize they also have a limit on the amount of time they have for taking care of the animals they board. To keep things fair, they have agreed on the following time constraints.

• Feeding Time: Carlos and Clarita estimate that cats will require 6 minutes twice a day—morning and evening—to feed and clean their litter boxes, for a total of 12 minutes per day for each cat. Dogs will require 10 minutes twice a day to feed and walk, for a total of 20 minutes per day for each dog. Carlos can spend up to 8 hours each day for the morning and evening feedings, but needs the middle of the day off for baseball practice and games.

• Pampering Time: The twins plan to spend 16 minutes each day brushing and petting each

cat, and 20 minutes each day bathing or playing with each dog. Clarita needs time off in the morning for swim team and evening for her art class, but she can spend up to 8 hours during the middle of the day to pamper and play with the pets.

Write inequalities for each of these additional time constraints. Shade the solution set for each constraint on separate coordinate grids.

2.5 All For One, One For All A Solidify Understanding Task

Carlos and Clarita have found a way to represent combinations of cats and dogs that satisfy each of their individual “Pet Sitter” constraints, but they realize that they need to find combinations that satisfy all of the constraints simultaneously. Why?

1. Begin by listing the system of inequalities you have written to represent the startup costs and space “Pet Sitter” constraints.

2. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would satisfy both of the constraints

represented by this system of inequalities. How do you know these combinations work?

3. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would satisfy one of the constraints, but not the other. For each combination, explain how you know it works for one of the inequalities, but not for other?

4. Shade a region on a coordinate grid that would represent the solution set to the system of

inequalities. Explain how you found the region to shade.

5. Rewrite your systems of inequalities to include the additional constraints for feeding time and pampering time.

6. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would satisfy all of the constraints

represented by this new system of inequalities. How do you know these combinations work?

7. Find at least 5 combinations of cats and dogs that would satisfy some of the constraints, but

not all of them. For each combination, explain how you know it works for some inequalities, but not for others?

8. Shade a region of a coordinate grid that would represent the solution set to the system of

inequalities consisting of all 4 “Pet Sitter” constraints. Explain how you found the region to shade.

9. Shade a region in quadrant 1 of a coordinate grid that would represent all possible

combinations of cats and dogs that satisfy the 4 “Pet Sitter” constraints. This set of points is referred to as the feasible region since Carlos and Clarita can feasibly board any of the combinations of cats and dogs represented by the points in this region without exceeding any of their constraints on time, money or space.

Carlos and Clarita need to clean the storage shed where they plan to board the pets. They have decided to hire a company to clean the windows. After collecting the following information, they have come to you for help deciding which window cleaning company they should hire.

• Sunshine Express Window Cleaners charges $50 for each service call, plus $10 per window.

• “Pane”less Window Cleaners charges $25 for each service call, plus $15 per window. 1. Which company would you recommend, and why? Prepare an argument to convince Carlos and

Clarita that your recommendation is reasonable. (It is always more convincing if you can support your claim in multiple ways. How might you support your recommendation using a table? A graph? Algebra?)

Your presentation to Carlos reminds him of something he has been thinking about—how to find the coordinates of the points where the boundary lines in the “Pet Sitter” constraints intersect. He would like to do this algebraically since he thinks guessing the coordinates from a graph might be less accurate.

2.7 Shopping for Cats and Dogs A Develop Understanding Task

Clarita is upset with Carlos because he has been buying cat and dog food without recording the price of each type of food in their accounting records. Instead, Carlos has just recorded the total price of each purchase, even though the total cost includes more that one type of food. Carlos is now trying to figure out the price of each type of food by reviewing some recent purchases. See if you can help him figure out the cost of particular items for each purchase, and be prepared to explain your reasoning to Carlos.

1. One week Carlos bought 3 bags of Tabitha Tidbits and 4 bags of Figaro Flakes for $43.00. The next week he bought 3 bags of Tabitha Tidbits and 6 bags of Figaro Flakes for $54.00. Based on this information, figure out the price of one bag of each type of cat food. Explain your reasoning.

2. One week Carlos bought 2 bags of Brutus Bites and 3 bags of Lucky Licks for $42.50. The

next week he bought 5 bags of Brutus Bites and 6 bags of Lucky Licks for $94.25. Based on this information, figure out the price of one bag of each type of dog food. Explain your reasoning.

3. Carlos purchased 6 dog leashes and 6 cat brushes for $45.00 for Clarita to use while

pampering the pets. Later in the summer he purchased 3 additional dog leashes and 2 cat brushes for $19.00. Based on this information, figure out the price of each item. Explain your reasoning.

4. One week Carlos bought 2 packages of dog bones and 4 packages of cat treats for $18.50.

Because the finicky cats didn’t like the cat treats, the next week Carlos returned 3 unopened packages of cat treats and bought 2 more packages of dog bones. After being refunded for the cat treats, Carlos only had to pay $1.00 for his purchase. Based on this information, figure out the price of each item. Explain your reasoning.

5. Carlos has noticed that because each of his purchases have been somewhat similar, it has

been easy to figure out the cost of each item. However, his last set of receipts has him puzzled. One week he tried out cheaper brands of cat and dog food. On Monday he purchased 3 small bags of cat food and 5 small bags of dog food for $22.75. Because he went through the small bags quite quickly, he had to return to the store on Thursday to buy 2 more small bags of cat food and 3 more small bags of dog food, which cost him $14.25. Based on this information, figure out the price of each bag of the cheaper cat and dog food. Explain your reasoning.

Summarize the strategies you have used to reason about the price of individual items in the problems given above. What are some key ideas that seem helpful?

2.8 Can You Get to the Point, Too? A Solidify Understanding Task

Part 1 In “Shopping for Cats and Dogs,” Carlos found a way to find the cost of individual items when given the purchase price of two different combinations of those items. He would like to make his strategy more efficient by writing it out using symbols and algebra. Help him formalize his strategy by doing the following:

• For each scenario in “Shopping for Cats and Dogs” write a system of equations to represent the two purchases.

• Show how your strategies for finding the cost of individual items could be represented by

manipulating the equations in the system. Write out intermediate steps symbolically, so that someone else could follow your work.

• Once you find the price of one of the items in the combination, show how you would find the

price of the other item. Part 2 Writing out each system of equations reminded Carlos of his work with solving systems of equations graphically. Show how each scenario in “Shopping for Cats and Dogs” can be represented graphically, and how the cost of each item shows up in the graphs. Part 3 Carlos also realized that the algebraic strategy he created in part 1 could be used to find the points of intersection for the “Pet Sitters” constraints. Use the elimination of variables method developed in part 1 to find the point of intersection for each of the following pairs of “Pet Sitter” constraints.

• Startup costs and space constraints

• Pampering time and feeding time constraints

• Any other pair of “Pet Sitter” constraints of your choice

2.9 Food for Fido and Fluffy A Solidify Understanding Task

Carlos and Clarita have found two different cat foods that seem to appeal to even the most finicky of cats: Tabitha Tidbits and Figaro Flakes. Each ounce of Tabitha Tidbits contains 2 grams of protein, 4 grams of carbohydrates and 4 grams of fat. Each ounce of Figaro Flakes contains 3 grams of protein, 4 grams of carbohydrates and 2 grams of fat. Since Tabitha Tidbits is fairly expensive, while Figaro Flakes is very cheap, the twins have decided to create a new cat food by mixing the two. After studying some nutritional guidelines for cats, Carlos and Clarita have decided to create a mixture based on the following constraints.

• Amount of Protein: Each meal should contain at least 12 grams of protein. • Amount of Carbohydrates: Each meal should contain more than 16 grams of carbohydrates. • Amount of Fats: Each meal should contain no more than 18 grams of fat. • Size of a Feeding: Each meal should consist of less than 10 ounces of food.

For the work that follows, let T represent the number of ounces of Tabitha Tidbits in a meal and let F represent the number of ounces of Figaro Flakes.

1. Write an inequality for each of the constraints.

2. On separate coordinate grids, graph the solution set for each of the inequalities you wrote in #1. How do you know on which side of the boundary line you should shade the half‐plane that represents the solution set?

3. Decide if the boundary line for each inequality represented in #2 should be a solid line or a

dotted line. Which words or phrases in the constraints suggested a solid line? A dotted line?

4. Find at least 5 combinations of Tabitha Tidbits and Figaro Flakes Carlos and Clarita can mix

together to create a nutritious cat meal. Show that these points lie within a feasible region for these constraints.

5. Brutus Bites is a brand of dog food that contains 4 grams of protein and 6 grams of fat per ounce. Lucky Licks is another brand of dog food that contains 12 grams of protein and 4 grams of fat per ounce. Carlos wants to make a meal for dogs that contains at least 8 grams of protein and no more than 6 grams of fat. Write and solve a system of inequalities that Carlos can use to determine a combination of Brutus Bites and Lucky Licks that will satisfy these constraints.

2.12 Pet Sitters Revisited A Develop Understanding Task

Carlos and Clarita have successfully found a way to represent all of the combinations of cats and dogs that they can board based on all of the following constraints.


• Feeding Time: Carlos and Clarita estimate that cats will require 6 minutes twice a day—

morning and evening—to feed and clean their litter boxes, for a total of 12 minutes per day for each cat. Dogs will require 10 minutes twice a day to feed and walk, for a total of 20 minutes per day for each dog. Carlos can spend up to 8 hours each day for the morning and evening feedings, but needs the middle of the day off for baseball practice and games.

• Pampering Time: The twins plan to spend 16 minutes each day brushing and petting each

cat, and 20 minutes each day bathing or playing with each dog. Clarita needs time off in the morning for swim team and evening for her art class, but she can spend up to 8 hours during the middle of the day to pamper and play with the pets.

• Startup Costs: Carlos and Clarita plan to invest much of the $1280 they earned from their

last business venture to purchase cat pens and dog runs. It will cost $32 for each cat pen and $80 for each dog run.

Now they are trying to determine how many of each type of pet they should plan to accommodate. Of course, Carlos and Clarita want to make as much money as possible from their business, so they need to pay attention to both their daily income as well as their daily costs. They plan to charge $8 per day for boarding each cat and $20 per day for each dog. They estimate that each cat will require $2.00 per day in food and supplies, and that each dog will require $4.00 per day in costs. After surveying the community regarding the pet boarding needs, Carlos and Clarita are confident that they can keep all of their boarding spaces filled for the summer. So the question is, how many of each type of pet should they prepare for in order to make as much money as possible? What combination of cats and dogs do you think will make the most money? What recommendations would you give to Carlos and Clarita, and what argument would you use to convince them that your recommendation is reasonable? To get started on this task, you might want to look for collections of points where the daily profit is the same. For example, can you find a collection of points where for each point the daily profit is $120? What about $180?
